Abstract
A compensation technique and network circuitry for a quad-diode demodulator and capacitive transducer combination is disclosed. The compensation method includes varying the amplitude of an alternating carrier frequency oppositely to the changes produced in that amplitude by the compensable errors in the demodulator and transducer. In one preferred embodiment ratiometric compensation and temperature compensation for the demodulator and any capacitive transducer is produced. In a second embodiment linearization and temperature compensation for the demodulator and a quartz capacitive transducer is provided.
